Brisbane Roar vs Sydney FC Match Analysis & Prediction

24/04/2023 12:00 pm

Brisbane Roar play host to Sydney FC on Monday in a key match in the race to secure a top-six spot in the A-League table.
Although Brisbane find themselves down in 11th place, a victory in the upcoming game would take them to within two points of their fifth-placed opponents.
A poor run of form saw Brisbane slip into the bottom half of the table, yet seven points from their last four matches has kept them in contention for the Finals series.
Last time out, they came from behind to secure a 2-2 draw at Wellington Phoenix, and they now sit five points behind the sixth-placed team with a game in hand.
Having previously lost three away games in succession, the share of the spoils was a bonus, and Nick Green’s side now know that only victories will do if they want to lift themselves into the top six.
Sydney FC are defending that position, and they have been rising to the occasion with a five-point haul from three matches.
Following draws with Adelaide United and Western United, a rousing second-half performance against Perth Glory led to a 4-1 victory being secured over the seventh-placed side.
Not only will Sydney be wary of a defeat in this game, but they end the regular campaign by playing Newcastle Jets, who are eighth but just three points behind.
All things considered, Sydney’s goal difference should keep them ahead, yet a heavy defeat in this match would open the door to a number of teams below them.
Although Steve Corica’s side possess the third best away record in the division, they are without a win in their last three games on the road.
Brisbane Roar vs. Sydney FC Head to head
In the 62 previous meetings between these two teams, Brisbane have claimed 20 victories while Sydney have won 21, and they have drawn in 21. Sydney have scored 76 goals and conceded 74 in the process.
